There’s something deeply sacred about syncing your life with the rhythm of the Earth. That’s the heart of being a Green Empath—a highly sensitive soul who finds healing, guidance, and connection through nature. Green empaths may not follow a specific spiritual tradition, but we live in deep harmony with the natural world. We feel the pulse of the seasons, listen to the wisdom of trees, and experience everyday moments, like sunlight through the leaves or rain on the roof, as quiet messages from the universe.
Our practices are rooted in intuition and reverence. We connect with plants, tend gardens with intention, and often find that nature mirrors our inner world. Outside my front door, I grow lavender, rosemary, and sage—not just for their beauty and fragrance, but because they feel like allies. Lavender brings peace and protection, rosemary sharpens clarity and memory, and sage offers grounding and cleansing. These plants greet me daily as gentle reminders that I am supported and surrounded by natural magic.
If you’re an empath who feels most yourself under an open sky or with your hands in the soil, this list of 11 soulful tools is for you. Each one is designed to deepen your connection to the Earth, enhance your daily rituals, and support your journey as a sensitive and intuitive being in a vibrant, living world.
Herbal Apothecary Starter Kit
Every green empath benefits from having a variety of herbs on hand. Look for a kit that includes herbs such as lavender, chamomile, mugwort, and peppermint to get started. These can be used in teas, intention rituals, baths, and incense.
Mortar and Pestle
Crushing herbs by hand is a sensory ritual in itself. A stone or ceramic mortar and pestle is a wonderful tool for releasing plant energy while preparing magical blends, incense, or herbal remedies.
Moon Phase Planting Calendar
Working with the moon allows you to align your intentions with nature’s rhythm. A lunar calendar helps you track planting days, rituals, and inner cycles with ease and intention. Find the best times to sow, plant, prune & harvest.
Gardening Tools
Whether you’re planting in containers or have a large herb garden, having tools that feel good in your hands adds joy to the process. Gardening is green witchcraft in action—especially when you grow plants with purpose.
Glass Jars and Storage Bottles
As your herbal practice grows, you’ll want to store your dried herbs, infused oils, and moon water. Small glass jars and bottles help you keep your materials fresh and beautiful.
Green Witchcraft Book
Having a guidebook helps you deepen your connection to the intuitive empath's path. One that I often recommend is “The Green Witch” by Arin Murphy-Hiscock, a lovely blend of practical advice and intuitive guidance.
Essential Oils
These concentrated plant essences are powerful additions to your intention rituals or diffusions. Start with grounding oils like lavender, cedarwood, eucalyptus, or frankincense. Lemongrass and orange are great for DIY cleansers.
Beeswax Candles
Candles bring in the fire element and create sacred space. Choose natural beeswax or soy in earthy tones or herbal scents to enhance your meditations, rituals, and intention setting.
Foraging Basket
For those who love to walk the land and gather herbs, flowers, or veggies from your garden, a small basket makes your foraging feel like a sacred practice, while keeping you organized.
Green Witch Oracle Deck
I love using oracle cards as part of my daily grounding ritual. A nature-based deck, such as The Green Witch Oracle by Cheralyn Darcey, brings messages through plant allies, seasonal energies, and elemental forces.
Green Juice
Nature heals us not just energetically, but physically. A daily green juice connects you with plants from the inside out. Blends with cucumber, spinach, parsley, lemon, or celery are especially cleansing and energizing. This is a simple way to bring your green magic into the kitchen, treating your body as part of your sacred altar.
🌱Go Green
Being a Green Empath is a way of living that honors your sensitivity, intuition, and your deep bond with the natural world. These tools are gentle companions on your journey, but the true healing lies in how you navigate life, tuning in to the rustle of leaves, the language of the sky, and the quiet knowing within you. Start small. Stay open. And let nature remind you that you belong.
